Everything was pretty well picked over in my regular spots so I took a thirteen mile eleven hour hike with a friend at the North Sulphur River Texas. Here's my finds. The mosaaur tooth, fish fin with verts, fish occipital condyle and the big Tylosaur vert made my day. The water moccasins were mating and did not appreciate us walking by. They both took the time to open their mouths and warn us to get away.

Bless you for rescuing a truck full of really nice old items.  I cannot wait to visit NSR myself.  :tiphat:

Opalised fossils are the best: a wonderful mix between paleontology and mineralogy!

 

Q. Where do dinosaurs study?

A. At Khaan Academy!...

Sweet haul. What’s the fish occipital condyle?

Love the special fossils you seem to always find. SOMEDAY, I would love to visit the NSR!!! One question. Do the trees in Texas loose their leaves this time of year? Even in Minnesota, we are only beginning the yearly shed of foliage.

Depends on where in Texas and what type of tree. But generally no for this time of year (September-October). Around here (Houston area) it’s likely to be much closer to Christmas. When I lived in south Louisiana, a lot of the oak trees wouldn’t lose most of their leaves until the tree started budding out in the “Spring” (ie late January-February). Also seems dependent on how wet or dry it has been.
